Going to Baltimore Comic Con? : Useful Information

 

BALTIMORE, MARYLAND - September 19, 2017 - The 2017 Baltimore Comic-Con is just around the corner. We know we're providing a lot of information in a short period, but we wanted to make sure you have all of the important details about the show!

Of course, as always, we are at the Baltimore Convention Center, and this year's show takes place the weekend of September 22-24, 2017. If you haven't bought your General Admission, VIP, or Ringo Awards tickets yet, doing so now will avoid additional lines upon arrival. If you cannot purchase tickets until coming to the show for any reason, box office hours begin at 8am ET daily on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

If you came to the show last year, we are in the same location in 2016. If you are new to the show, or missed us last year (we forgive you), see the diagram above for details on where to enter.

ATMs will be available in numerous places throughout the convention floor for your convenience.
